UK: WRG reveals UK job losses and Qatar office closure

WRG has announced job losses in the UK and the Middle East and the closure of its Qatar office.

The Manchester-based experiential agency also revealed senior appointments in its UK, US and Asian business and said it was making decisions about the ‘shape’ of its organisation.

A statement on the WRG website said: “In the Middle East we will be closing our Qatar office later this year. We will continue to operate in the region from our Abu Dhabi office, however this consolidation means a number of people will be leaving the Middle East business.

“In the UK we’ve also announced some changes to the team, with a small number of people leaving the business.

“We’re making these changes to ensure we continue to grow in a smart and sustainable way and that we continue to deliver for our clients brilliantly.”
